1/2 x (x+14)=120

OpenStudy (ghazi):

multiply both sides by 2 x(x+4)=240 then expand it

OpenStudy (ghazi):

\[x^2+14x-240=0\] now use quadratic formula or else you can factorize it..i am not sure about factorization

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok thank you. I understood

OpenStudy (ghazi):

:) YW

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=13,5 and x=-17,5 ? @ghazi

OpenStudy (ghazi):

Parth (parthkohli):

Possibly, the question means the following:\[{1 \over 2} \times \left( x + 14\right) = 120\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes you are right @ghazi

OpenStudy (ghazi):
